Thermography at River Chiropractic & Wellness
What is Thermography?
At River Chiropractic & Wellness, we offer Medical Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI) to measure and quantify the body’s physiology, or function. Using FDA registered sophisticated medical imaging software, DITI converts infrared radiation emitted from the skin surface into electrical impulses that are visualized in color on a monitor.
This visual image graphically maps the body temperature and is referred to as a thermogram. These thermal images are then analyzed, interpreted, and risk assessed by board certified medical doctors trained in thermography. This report, which includes your thermal images, will be made available to you shortly following your appointment.
